Is life without bling and sparkles really worth living? Err, I admit I may not be the best person to listen to having just bought these.....

How about a nice Cuban link? Or custom made diamond grills?

My cob would rock bling but she has a fairly understated beaded browband from Leebo Life in pink to show shes a girl ?

I LOVE the first one! Not in to bling at all but that would look fantastic on my black Fell pony! ?

I used to be decisive, now I'm not so sure...
I don't think anyone would see the browband with the foof Rigsby has on his top knot.
Love the disco lights though!

They'd both look glorious on Deza!

As someone who's hat cover is an equetech furry multi coloured animal one I think a bit of bling would be the least of my cobs problems! It you want it do it ?

I love using a bit of bling but there’s definitely a cut off point

MrT is now demanding one of these...

I've told him there's a lot on the list we have to get first. But he says it'll go so well with his Viking braids hairstyle and don't I know he has marauding to be doing and he NEEDS to look the part. ?

Thanks! They are rather unusual. She has a very faded snip between her nose holes that you cant see there and a Harry Potter lighting stripe under her chin ?

You are a terrible influence. I didn't buy that one but only went one click further. An Easter present for Dabs ?

Nowt wrong with a bit of bling on a coloured cob. Both of theses were made by a lovely lady, might not have been on here, lives in Hungary, her horses were stolen?
Both helpfully hid the line of colour, which is not straight.

If you like a bit of bling with no nasty clenchers to catch the forelock, look for Mico Equestrian. She makes beautiful threaded browbands. She's on FB & Etsy.
Excuse his cut face, he'd been hedge browsing. Idiot.

Do as you very well please. As a teenager in the 90s I was incredibly lucky when my parents were able to eventually buy me a horse. He was a cob - he was fabulous! But I was always a bit ashamed, because of the attitudes of those around me (and teens are just so easily influenced, aren't they! I wish I could slap myself!).
Anyway, in 'those days' (hah!) it was totally ridiculous to think of putting a Whitney stripe rug on anything so coarse as a cob! I would have LOVED one, but no - unwritten rules. I remember picking up a breastplate at a sales once and it had a white backing - got some looks and words about putting THAT on my cob!
I spent so long worrying about what others thought, and about what was 'right' and 'wrong', I didn't get many of the things I would have liked. I'm older now and maybe not wiser, but I absolutely care less. The 'rules' are less set in stone than they were - but even if they weren't, I think I'd just buy whatever I damn well pleased and enjoy it Go bling that cob.

Oooh eek... I had the uncanny valley thing with that horse and then realised that it was on a stand, so stuffed or a model? Love the outfit though and I'm now finding it funny that the man is holding the rein to stop his fake horse from bogging off!

I just think that this might be too understated for a nice coloured cob...!

Just a bit of bling....
Maybe this blingy headpiece is a bit much if you are not an actual monarch...

Very pretty. I remember that lady and her move to Hungary years ago. Still think about her and the horses that were stolen.
